collection
const Bool collection := false
Collections are serialized with a collection of child objects using the following rules where Item is the item type:
- Provide an
add(Item)method to add child items duringreadObj - Provide an
each(|Item| f)method to iterate child items duringwriteObj
simple
const Bool simple := false
Simples are serialized atomically via a customized string representation using the following rules:
- Override
Obj.toStrto return a suitable string representation of the object. - Must declare a static method called
fromStrwhich takes oneStrparameter and returns an instance of the declaring type. ThefromStrmethod may contain additional parameters if they declare defaults.
